Lalesha was sick and tired of being SICK and TIRED. Following her myomectomy, she found herself indulging in self-sabotaging habits that resulted in swollen ankles and legs, massive weight gain, and skin that shrouded her in shame. Grabbed by inflammation, Lalesha knew it was time to get RADICAL about her health.
Like Lalesha, our bodies are constantly exposed to toxins and pollutants from various sources, including the food we eat and the environment we live in. These toxins can disrupt our body’s equilibrium, leading to imbalances in hormones, sluggish metabolism, and other health issues. Fortunately, our bodies come wired with the innate ability to detoxify and heal themselves. However, the toxic load of lifestyles that include unhealthy diets, stress, exposure to hormone disrupting products and more can burden, and even inhibit, this natural process.
Enter fasting into the group chat—the first step in resetting our bodies. Fasting serves as the initial step in resetting our body’s natural detoxing functions and kickstarting its healing process. By abstaining from food, or certain foods, we allow our bodies to cleanse, balance hormones, eliminate toxins and wastes, and enhance weight loss.
BENEFITS OF FASTING:
- Detoxification and Cleansing: While fasting, our body goes into a state of accelerated detoxification, allowing it to eliminate accumulated toxins and wastes. When we abstain from consuming food, our organs, such as the liver and kidneys, can focus on metabolizing and removing stored toxins from our system. This process helps to cleanse our bodies and restore their natural functioning.
- Hormonal Balance: Fasting can also have a significant impact on hormonal balance. By giving our body a break from constant food intake, fasting helps regulate hormones associated with metabolism, such as insulin, ghrelin, and leptin. Balancing these hormones can improve insulin sensitivity, reduce cravings, and support healthier weight management.
- Vital Detox Organ Repair: The absence of food during fasting allows our body to redirect energy towards the repair of our four vital detox organs (liver, kidneys, lungs, skin) and two systems (digestive and lymphatic). This energy shift enhances the function of these vital organs and systems promoting the removal of toxic substances from our tissues and cells. Additionally, fasting stimulates autophagy, a cellular process that eliminates damaged cells and recycles their components, further aiding in toxin elimination.
- Boosted Weight Loss: Weight loss is often a desirable outcome of fasting. When we abstain from food, our body turns to its fuel reserves—primarily stored body fat, inflammation and even tumors—to produce energy. This process promotes effective weight loss, inflammation elimination and even the shrinking and dissolving of tumors and cysts and more that can be sustained and accelerated if combined with a balanced and nutritious diet after breaking the fast.
- Improved Metabolic Function: Fasting can help reset our body’s metabolism, making it more efficient in utilizing energy. By regulating hormone levels and supporting insulin sensitivity, fasting encourages the body to utilize stored fat as a source of energy, leading to improved metabolic function and increased fat burning potential.
